Amra Kojon literally means “a few of us” in Bangla. A few years ago, a group of music lovers from both Bengals came together in celebration of their motherland and language, beyond the borders of religion, country, politics and local organizations.

Dear friends:

On behalf of Amra Kojon we thank all performers, volunteers, organizers and sponsors that helped in creating a successful show on May 24th at MIT's Kresge auditorium. We would like to extend our special thanks to all participants that traveled from great distance to be a part of this musical journey. We express our sincere gratitude towards the audience that made our initiative worthwhile. Without the combined effort of all the participants and the audience to support and cheer us on, we would not have been able to make this event a success. Finally special thanks to Bangladesh Student's Association of MIT (MIT-BSA) for hosting this show.

As a performer, I enjoyed participating with a very talented group of performers, musicians, and of course, the ring master, Taposh! I thank you all for your camraderie over more than three months of rehearsals, and other work we did together. But I thank our leader for his enthusiasm, dedication, and unbelievable commitment. Hats off to you, Taps!
